Help! My 2 year old son statred pre-school at Montessori school a little over a week ago. I have been so excited about this school since it comes with an excellent reputation. The first two days went wonderfully. Then on the third day my son started throwing tantrums as soon as he realized he was going to school. Yesterday the lead teacher said that he was having trouble transitioning from one activity to the next and that he always prefers to be outside. They also said that after he naps in the afternoon he becomes a totally well-behaved calm cooperative child but in the mornings he's throwing tantrums especially when it's time to stop something that he likes doing. The teacher told me today that they are having a meeting about my son and that they will talk to us when we pick him up today. I of course, left the school sobbing as up until now, my son has always been very good about staying with baby-sitters and (we recently moved 3 months ago from California to Tennessee) he has been in childcare since he was 10 weeks old and before he was fine. All the other children in his class seem really happy and are playing contently when we bring my son in the morning. I am so perplexed by this and would appreciate any advice. Would the Montessori school want to give up on my son when it hasn't even been two weeks? It breaks my heart to drag my screaming child in to the school every morning and see the look of "Oh brother here he comes" on the teachers faces.
